Following Atticus: Forty-Eight High Peaks, One Little Dog, and an Extraordinary Friendship by Tom Ryan

5.0

I started this book a couple of days ago, and I could not have picked it up at a better time. I had to put down my dear sweet beagle today, on the cusp of summer coming and preparing to spend the summer hiking and taking to the woods. While I am still understandably heart broken, reading abut Tom and his adventures with Atticus M. Finch did help to make me feel a bit better. Dogs are beautiful, resilient creatures who throw their all into loving us. It is our duty love, respect, and take care of them in return.

I'm thankful for the years I had with all of my fur babies, and while I'll miss my sweet beagle I think the time in the woods this summer with my German Shepherd will help in the healing process. Bonnie Beagle loved nothing in this world better than chasing rabbits through the woods, open fields, and anywhere else she could manage to squeeze into. We'll miss her, but we'll be closer to her again out there in the places she loved most.
